The Kiss

By sundown both parties had made it to their secret cave. They had planned only to be four but now there were seven. Julian hand joined Rin and Bryn and Sam and Billie had joined Ivena and Athea. Now they were finally all together.

"Ok, the original plan only called for four people but with there being seven of us now, we'll have to ration the food supply," Rin said as she emerged from the far side of the cave. She sat back down in the group around the fire. Most people wouldn't have risked a fire, but being in a cave had its advantages. The roof sloped upwards and the smoke exited the volcano mouth above them which was always smoking.

"How's your shoulder?" Billie asked Julian. She had pulled out the knife for him and gathered the herbs that he asked for. His District also sent in some medication for the pain and antibiotics to fight infection.

Billie loved seeing Julian with his shirt off. She ogled at his six pack and his chiseled pecks. Ever since she saw him in the training room, Billie wished she could be with Julian. Now it seemed that she had been granted her wish.

"It's doing pretty well, hurts like hell," Julian replied. He turned back to his plants that he had been making medicine out of. Billie wished she could just sit there and look at him forever, but a boy like him would never fall for a girl like her.

Suddenly she didn't know what she was doing. Her face was moving towards his her body rising to accommodate for the height difference. Julian unexpectedly turned his head to face Billie. Billie was surprised for a moment, but that didn't deter her actions.

Their lips embraced. Billie felt a chill go down her spine; this was the first time she'd ever kissed a boy before. She had figured that Julian would push her away, but after five seconds he was still there and seemed to be enjoying it.

Julian put his hand on the back of Billie's head and pulled her face closer to his. Julian scooted closer to Billie. He pushed her onto her back and got on top of her.

"Okay you two, why don't you go get a cave," Bryn said jokingly. Julian and Billie immediately realized that they were making everyone feel awkward. They sat up and wiped their faces clean from each other's saliva.

"Um… so… how many people are left?" Julian asked trying to change the subject.

"Well if you can keep your hands off Billie long enough to hear the answer," Sam said with a smirk, "there are 6; Hidan Katski, Killian Delphis, Lesley Greene, and Imagine Sadian."

"So are we goin to go hunt them or wait until they kill each other or what?" Athea asked.

"We'll go out in groups of three to gather food and stuff. If we find anyone them we will take them out," Bryn said. He had kind of become the undeclared leader, "Athea, Sam, and I will be going out on the first hunt."

"When?" Athea asked.

"Right now," Bryn said. He grabbed Rin's bow and arrow and tossed it to Athea, "do you know how to use that?" Athea nodded her head yes. Sam grabbed Julian's rifle and walked out of the cave behind Athea who was behind Bryn.
